Diebold voting machines hacked with $10 in parts

Anyone with about $10, physical access to a Diebold voting machine and rudimentary knowledge of electronics can remotely hack into the device, according to experts at the Vulnerability Assessment Team at Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois. A hacker could potentially change a personâs votes without them ever knowing about it.

âWe believe these man-in-the-middle attacks are potentially possible on a wide variety of electronic voting machines,â said Roger Johnston, leader of the assessment team. âWe think we can do similar things on pretty much every electronic voting machine.â
